Title: Method of identifying treatment responsive non-small cell lung cancer using anaplastic lymphoma kinase (alk) as a marker
Inventor: GROGAN THOMAS
IPC: G01N33/574
Filed: 2013-03-14
Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for identifying a subject as having NSCLC that is predicted or is likely to respond to treatment with an ALK inhibitor, for example crizotinib. The methods include identifying a sample including NSCLC tumor cells as ALK-positive or ALK-negative using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and scoring methods disclosed herein. A subject is identified as having NSCLC likely to respond to treatment with an ALK inhibitor if the sample is identified as ALK-positive and is identified as having NSCLC not likely to respond to treatment with an ALK inhibitor if the sample is identified as ALK-negative. According to certain embodiments of the methods, subjects predicted to respond to an ALK inhibitor may then be treated with an ALK inhibitor such as crizotinib.

Abstract: An analysis module (106) provides to a human subject an action request for imitation. A data collection and deconstruction module (104) digitally collects action request response data from a human subject and deconstructs the data into subcomponents. The analysis module (106) compares the subcomponents of the response data with the matching subcomponents of the action request and correlates the subcomponents of the physiological response with at least one of the subcomponents of the subject's response to the action request and a baseline state. An intelligent processing module (502) receives physiological subcomponent input and response data input and dynamically associates the physiological subcomponents and other data subcomponents and recommends a new action configured to move the subject response toward a more accurate imitation of the action request.

Title: Syringe with two-stage sealing pressure
Inventor: MACKEY SEAN E
IPC: A61M5/31
Filed: 2013-03-14
Abstract: A syringe includes a barrel, a plunger, and a sealing member creating a seal between the plunger and the barrel. The barrel includes a first portion with a first inner diameter and a second portion with a second inner diameter that is larger than the first inner diameter. The sealing member engages the first portion of the barrel to give rise to a first contact pressure when the barrel is filled with product. The first contact pressure is sufficient to maintain a gas-tight seal over the expected temperature ranges -25°C to 40°C. A first force is applied to the plunger to overcome the first contact pressure and move the plunger out of the first portion and into the second portion to dispense product. The sealing member engages the second portion of the barrel to give rise to a second contact pressure that is lower than the first contact pressure. A second force lower than the first force is sufficient to overcome the second contact pressure and move the plunger in the second portion to continue dispensing product. The syringe may include a restraining element for accommodating expansion of the product during freezing.
